Touring Bikes

If you've ever felt torn between a "traditional" road bike and a dedicated touring rig, you're not alone. Now, though, the Sequoia Elite gives you both by combining the two in one genre-bending bike. It has everything you need to hit the road and not look back. The Sequoia's path to adventure starts at the frame, which Specialized constructed from Premium Cr-Mo tubing. This material is coveted for its strength, light weight, and tuned ride quality. And they took this a step further by selecting tubes that are specific to each frame size, ensuring that every frame rides exactly as intended. The Adventure Geometry is unique in that it skews the line between a traditional road bike and a dedicated touring rig. You'll find an ample wheelbase and low bottom bracket for control, but the chainstays and tube angles ensure that you'll be able to travel efficiently and quickly, regardless of whether or not your rig is loaded. A beefy FACT carbon fiber fork is sure to take the sting out of harsh roads. And when you're deep into said roads, you'll be thankful for the extra water bottle mount found on its fork leg. Digging into the details, the frame is outfitted with an ample number of mounts for water, racks, and fenders. And for the build, they included reliable parts, like a Shimano 105 groupset, powerful hydraulic disc brakes, and hand-built Hayfield wheels that are cased in wide, 2Bliss Ready tires.

Cannondale's Touring Apex 1 SE is performance touring at its best. Stable and confident when loaded up with gear, yet still nimble and engaging when rolling free, this lightweight, versatile, and capable machine is perfect for modern touring, serious commuting, or comfy backroad adventuring.
Its flex-free aluminum frame features true touring geometry for a comfortable ride and plenty of braze-ons for racks, fenders, and bottle cages. Tough WTP wheels with stout 42mm tires provide excellent durability and support under heavy loads. To ensure an optimal fit and handling for riders of all sizes, smaller frames (48cm and 51cm) use 650B wheels, while larger frames are spec'd with 700c wheels.
Cannondale made sure this adventure seeker is ready-to-ride with an 11-speed SRAM Apex 1 drivetrain that delivers quick, accurate shifting, all-weather SRAM disc brakes, flared handlebars for stability, and a comfortable yet supportive saddle that delivers happiness for the long haul. With everything you need to start exploring, there's nothing stopping you from loading up and following the road less traveled.
